Committee on Budgetary Oversight

Fiscal Assessment Report: Irish Fiscal Advisory Council

Mr. Michael Tutty:

Money can only be spent once, and if extra money has to be spent on those particular projects it cannot be spent on others. I am not sure what the Minister was really saying there. If there is money that has not been fully committed to other projects, then all of the ones that have already been committed to can still go ahead.
